As the residents, families, and staff of the nation’s long term and post-acute care communities battle the COVID-19 pandemic, the American Health Care Association/National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) has launched a new website to help the public share caring, supportive social media message with residents.

AHCA/NCAL said at a time when long term care centers are unable to have visitors due to COVID-19, the website is meant to encourage people to share uplifting messages that can then get to residents via social media channels.

Examples of these many uplifting stories on the website include siblings sending homemade cards to family inside facilities, family singing happy birthday to a 100-year-old great grandmother through a window of a care community, and a NASCAR team raising money to buy tablets for nursing facility residents.
